Is it true alot of Xena fans don't like Kevin Sorbo?

Don't know if they do but considering Sorbo bad mouths Lucy Lawless and the show and seems butthurt that Xena had better ratings (and writing) so it's not like Xena fans have much reason to like him.

Kevin Sorbo became jealous of Xena and Lucy becoming as popular as they did. He also resented Rob because he wanted executive producer credits and didn't get it.

Lucy has said that people thought she was gay because of her height and the role she became famous for. Lucy is an extrovert. Just this past week in all her interviews with many kinds of media for Ash vs Evil Dead she is friendly with everybody. Not just because she is promoting the show but that is just the way she is. Renee described Lucy as someone who loves people. She treats everybody like they are friends.

Sorbo thinks that homosexuality is an abomination because that is what his religion teaches. Saying Lucy is gay is just more criticism of her in his mind. And it also is a dig at Rob.

Sorbo also called the Xena fans "that crowd" meaning gay. He didn't say it in way being a compliment either.

Why don't Xena fans like Sorbo. Well, just listen to him and read his Facebook and Twitter accounts. There's your answer. I would think he has lost quite a few of his own fans too.

To me, pretending to be bisexual would be to say so, but it's not true. She never said this. She never played up a real life relationship with a female as a lover. I do not believe embracing the gay community means she was pretending to be bisexual. I know a lot of people that have embraced the gay community. So they're pretending to be bisexual too? What would be better? That she not embrace them? That she was indifferent toward them?

She said in an interview with Lesbian News in 2003, that "she wasn't sure about Xena's sexual orientation until the last episode. But once Gabrielle had to revive Xena by passing water into her mouth, Lawless says it was clear that these two characters were more than just close friends."

This is why you are hearing her saying this after Xena ended. She was recently at her friend, Tig Notaro's wedding. So the conspiracy is that she went because she is pretending to be bisexual? Maybe Lucy genuinely cares about the gay community and feels that they have been marginalized over the years. Maybe she has gay friends that have not been treated fairly.

George Takei says "I've often said, the most important people in the fight for LGBT equality are our straight allies." But if they act as allies, the conspiracy begins that are pretending to be bisexual. I just don't go along with that line of thinking.

xena and Hercules' ratings were pretty close most of the time. Maybe there was a 0.1 to 0.9 difference from week to week. in season one of xena, hercles tended to have the higher rating. but by season six of Hercules, xena tended to have the higher rating. but what is more interesting is that no matter who had the higher rating, Hercules or xena, the audience for both declined by half compared to season one of Hercules.

regardless of ratings, xena had the stronger fan base.

Hercules was a positive role model, but xena was a badass, a sex symbol, a feminist icon, a lesbian icon, and kickass woman during the girl power movement, and so much more to so many different people. so xena has more appeal.

I always got a bit of an obnoxious vibe from this actor (even when he was in character playing Hercules).

Lucy the actress has never pretended to be bisexual. She was talking about a fictional character. However, I do think she and the producers of Xena played up the sexuality of the main protagonists in order to keep the gay audience invested. They played with the gay crowd's emotions too often.

He is a bitter jealous c u next Tuesday.

Well pretending to be bi to boost a show - I don't see anything wrong with that tbh. Look at Brandon Flowers from The Killers, he's a Mormon yet likes to pretend to be bi or dubious sexually as pr for his band image. Bruce Campbell is a joy to watch being a jerk or an azz, but I'm pretty sure he plays it up for his Ash fan base. Old Hollywood use to do that a lot more than they do today, it's a smart system and I'm all for it. It's all about escapism and pretending, that's why we love fantasy/fiction.
